Country: China
Directed by Chen Kaige
Fascinating, epic, impressive, exotic and colorful , with unmatched beauty , 'Farewell my concubine' is a powerful tragedy that compacts 60 years of Chinese history in its 3 hours length without to make you to feel bored even for one moment. Usually so ambitious films are pompous and heavy but is not the case for this one. Although a conversation can be held about its historical accuracy, and many years passed since I watched it (so probably i missed back then some weak points that may be I can spot now), I remember it as a real masterpiece: is difficult for any movie with similar theme to overcome it
